Every Friday

No day is better than Friday! Friday is my favorite day. All week long, a boy and his father look forward to their Friday ritualbreakfast at their favorite diner. The leisurely walk through the neighborhood is just as good as the pancakes at the end. Dan Yaccarino's bright, distinctive art style and sweet, simple story about father-son bonding make Every Fridayan all-around crowd-pleaser. The weekly tradition will appeal to children who have similar routines with their parents, and kids who don't have such a tradition will be asking their dads to start one! It's a perfect gift book, toojust in time for Father's Day.

“This is an excellent book for a parent and child to share, and perhaps some families will begin weekly traditions of their own.”—School Library Journal “It’s the closeness between father and son, though, that will speak most to kids, and Yaccarino’s clean lines, saturated colors, and very simple words distill the story’s emotions into clear, understated sweetness that’s not too sugary.”—Booklist, Starred Review Amazon Top Ten Picture Books 2007
